2. Peter Rabbit (2018)
Based on the character created by Beatrix Potter, ‘Peter Rabbit’ tells the story of the titular blue jacket-wearing fluffy animal and his three sisters, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-Tail, who lead a cheerful life in Mr. McGregor’s vegetable garden. They are friends with the kind-hearted local resident, Bea, who plays a motherly role in their lives. However, trouble begins as one of McGregor’s relatives moves into his home following his demise. Irritated by the group of rabbits calling the garden their home, he engages in numerous schemes to get them ousted, while maintaining a facade of caring for them in front of Bea to woo her. However, the rabbits prove to be far more resourceful, and fight back to protect their home. Margot Robbie lends her voice to the animated rabbit Flopsy in the film, as well as serves as the narrator. You can watch the Will Gluck-directed film on Netflix.
1. Babylon (2022)
Damien Chazelle’s ‘Babylon’ is set during the onset of the Golden Age of Hollywood, when the industry was shifting from silent films to sound films. Robbie plays eccentric and flamboyant actress Nellie LaRoy, whom the movie’s protagonist Manny Torres (Diego Calva), a Mexican immigrant working at Kinoscope studios, falls for. We also meet film star Jack Conrad, whose personal assistant Manny becomes toward the beginning of the movie. ‘Babylon’ showcases the surreal glitter and politics of Hollywood during that time, with Chazelle having his ‘La La Land’-esque grand musical approach.
